Quick Answer Needed!!

[Spanky]

Hey guys i no this is the rong section but i need a QUICK but detailed answer!

My drivers seat has come away from the floor, and im taking it to a steel fixing place tomorow to get it fixed for free!

All i need to no is where do you do the welds? is it under the car or under the carpet?

and what do you need to take off/out to get it done?

THANKS GUYS

[liamk15]

the seats are bolted to the floor,so what exactly has broken?

[Spanky]

Well basicaly, if i lean back the bolt nearest the centre console just lifts, tried tightening it and it was fully tight, so im ot exactly sure tbh

[DAN-VTS]

Think you weld them from inside the car, we had a few at work that done that, pretty sure all the carpet came up so must have been inside

[liamk15]

is it not just crossed?

try taking it out and have a look,if it is just tap it out and get a new bolt or if it'll go back in put a few washers on the bolt to stop it lifting.Use my moto to help 'bodge everything'

[Spanky]

I spot welded my mates from the inside of the car,then run seem weld round the edge of the bracket seat mounts,the under lay was pain at times....

[saxokid100]

[Spanky]

you will need to do the following mate

take the seat out
pull the carpet as far back you you can (you will need to take the centre console out and the seat belt bolt at the bottom of the drivers side
then find the bolt that will fall out into the chassis
screw the seat bolt a fgew turns into it
hole the bolt (with some long long long nose pliers where you want the nut to go)
tack it with the welder and then weld round it

fit seta and away you go

[Spanky]
